A key element of the Essentials range: the splicing needle. Designed specifically for anglers who prefer to make their own leadcore rigs, it offers the precision and reliability needed to get the job done quickly and efficiently, every time.
The thin locking tab is designed to hold the leadcore with just the right amount of grip, guiding it easily through the seam and ensuring perfect, even buttonholes, without the risk of the needle getting caught in the delicate fibres of the material.
Probably the most versatile needle in the Essentials range; ideal for those who prefer smaller baits, it can also be used as a classic thin latch needle.
A truly versatile accessory, at a price that makes it an essential addition to any fishing tackle box.
The Story of Essentials:
“BASIX has evolved into Korda Essentials. I originally designed this range to accompany the 'Back to Basix' Masterclass, but over the past few years we've realised something: BASIX is no longer simply 'basic'. The range has grown so much, and the equipment is of such quality, that it deserved a more appropriate name; we felt 'Essentials' was the perfect choice. It includes everything you need, without unnecessary frills. Whether you're just starting out with carp fishing or have been chasing big fish for twenty years, this gear is up to the task.” Danny F
The Korda Essentials range offers reliable, quality tackle without the expense. Based on simple methods and affordable products, the line provides anglers with everything they need to fish safely, effectively, and confidently, avoiding complications or the purchase of unnecessary components.
Korda Essentials makes quality carp fishing tackle more accessible to young people, beginners, occasional anglers and those on a budget. It ensures everyone has the right equipment to catch fish as effectively, if not better, than the angler next to them.
